"It's possible...what are you talking about?" Lucy asked, and Willick and Bloy stared at the back.
Alan and Catherine looked at each other, and both shook their heads. Catherine said: "It's useless to talk about this now. Let me give you some tutorials about the reconnaissance team first."
The so-called "possible", the two have different ideas. Catherine thought of Ellen who drank the blood of the king's snake, and Ellen thought of the devil's praise. Both of them are "interests" that they can think of, far beyond the sequence or the struggle of the New Party. Naturally, such topics should not be discussed under the current circumstances.
"The so-called reconnaissance team is a special organization that is responsible for a series of advance tasks such as investigating enemy positions, reconnaissance forces and even mapping terrain and confirming the route of entry. The reconnaissance team is not based on combat, and its death rate is no more than that of forwards. How low is the battalion. That’s because the area in which the reconnaissance team is responsible is usually ignorant, or where the Federation has very little intelligence. When investigating in such a place, the danger is usually unknown. And once exposed, Often because there is no reinforcements, if you can’t escape, you will only have to fight to death.” Catherine looked at the faces of Ellen and the others, and coughed slightly: “Although the reconnaissance team is dangerous, it is better than going directly to the forward battalion. There is only one rule for the forward battalion. Once you start a charge, there is no way back. You must either open the enemy’s gate or die on the way to the charge."
"If you don't ask, will Ruson throw us to the forward camp?" Allen asked.
Catherine nodded and said: "Eight times out of ten, you will do this. You should know that it is the best way to evaluate your'interests' in a short time."
Willik looked at these two people and sighed: "I don't understand what you are talking about now, what do you mean by the big guy?"
Bloy put his hands around his chest and closed his eyes, with a deep expression on his face. Willick squinted his eyes and said, "Well, you are not listening at all, are you?"
"I know what I don't understand, and what I'm good at is not analyzing this kind of thing." Bloy said naturally.
"Anyway, let's survive the scout team first. Your teacher, I'm afraid it will take a few days to react. I heard that the interstellar defense line is being attacked again by aliens." Catherine looked at it. Allen glanced.
Ellen clenched a fist and slammed: "The teacher will be fine, so we only need to live until she comes."
The secret tunnel is five kilometers long. It passes through the Yarra Mountains and arrives at a secret outpost in the Plains of Aleks for Death Spread. The sentinel was built under a hidden hill, and the entrance was disguised as a mountain. It's hard to detect the wrong thing. The head of the sentinel, and also the head of the reconnaissance team, Lieutenant Coza, is a man in his thirties. Under the light brown short hair is a lean and dry face, and an oblique scar crosses the left eyebrows, eyes and cheeks. It is said that this was where the famous Sword Demon General almost had his head cut off in a certain mission.
"Major Catherine, why did you come here in person?"
When he saw Catherine jumping from the truck, Lieutenant Cossa thought he was blinded. Death spreads a famously ruthless character. Catherine, the **** of death, came to this frontline outpost where birds don’t shit, and no one would believe it. Lieutenant Cossa was a little excited, after all, there are very few women here, especially beauties like Catherine.
If you don't have to think of the appalling deeds about Catherine, this moment is even better.
"This is Sergeant Allen. I will leave them to you, Lieutenant Cossa." Catherine ignored the excited expression on the Ensign's face and pointed back.
Ellen jumped out of the car, and the Willicks who followed him came down one after another. Lieutenant Cossa nodded and said: "I have been notified by the headquarters, great. We are short of manpower here. It is too timely for new people to join. Huh, are there any female soldiers?"
Lieutenant Cossa said in surprise as his eyes fell on Lucy. Catherine stepped forward and said, "This lady is not on the list. You can treat it as if she is here for vacation."
On vacation? Lieutenant Cossa somewhat doubted whether he had heard it wrong, what is this place, the entrance to the Plain of Alex. Pushing to the southwest is one of the ten swordsmen, a border camp of the Ironhoof tribe. In addition, God knows how many tribal strongholds there are on Alex. Soon, this plain will become a battlefield. Lieutenant Cossa didn't think this was a good place for vacation.
But looking like this, Catherine came here specifically to protect this girl. For those who need to be protected by a major general, Lieutenant Cossa, no matter how stupid he is, knows that he is definitely not a high-level person that he can reach, but may be a child of a wealthy nobleman. Anyway, Catherine bothers, even if she wants to wander around in the heart of the fire, it doesn't matter to him.
"Let them get acquainted with the sentinel today." Catherine said.
"This..." Cozagan smiled: "In fact, there is a very urgent reconnaissance mission. If they are okay, I hope the three can set off immediately."
Catherine did not want to be too close to Alan, and shrugged: "You are the person in charge here, naturally you have the final say."
Cossa looked at Alan, even though Bloy looked older of the three. But the Highlander and Willick both stood behind Alan, and it was clear who had the higher status. Allen nodded: "We can go anytime."
"That's great, you come with me." Cossa looked at Catherine again: "Major General, please feel free to...visit."
He couldn't think of a simple outpost to visit, but there was no better wording. After Catherine nodded, Cossa took Ellen and the three to leave, and they walked into the ensign's office. A very simple room, with a topographic map spread out on a table in the middle. Allen glanced at it. This is a sketch map of the terrain, and it needs necessary data corrections before it can be entered into the brain to make a solid model.
Lieutenant Cossa flattened the slightly wrinkled map with his hands, took out a red pen in one of the corners and drew a circle: "According to our observations, the activities of the Ironshoe Tribe have been frequent recently. Logically speaking, winter is The season that Sword Demon dislikes the most. If it is not necessary, they will not choose to act at this time. The information brought back from the previous scouts indicates that all this may be to prepare for the attack on the Shadow Fortress, but we do not know the specifics of the other party. Routes and military stations are set up. So the most recent task is to clarify the situation in this area. We have been scouts all around. But the manpower is still not enough. Your arrival can be regarded as a solution to my urgent need."
"If you are okay, I need three of you to go to this coordinate location immediately. Remember, our mission is not to fight, but to observe and record. Get the information we need back, and you will do a great job."
Then gave Alan the coordinates of the reconnaissance location, and Cossard said: "You wait here, I will prepare food, water and other necessities for you for three days."
Leaving Allen in the office, Cossa came to the warehouse, but turned around and entered the communication station at the back. There was a communication soldier at work. Cossa closed the door and said to him: "Connect me to Major Ruda."
After a while, on the communication screen, Cossa saw Luda. The second lieutenant winked at the signaller, who knew how to leave. Cossa said: "Major, they are here."
"Very well, have the coordinates been given to them?" Luda asked.
"Yes, but..." Coza hesitated: "There is a border stronghold of the Ironhoof tribe. If you go..."
"It's none of your business, Cossa. You just do what I said. These three guys dare to trouble me. I'm teaching them a little lesson." Major Luda said grimly: "Or, you don't plan to transfer back to the fortress?"
"Of course not. I don't want to stay in a place like this for one more minute." Lieutenant Cossa said nervously: "Then how long will it take for the major to transfer me back after this is done."
"Don't worry, you will be back for as long as ten days or as long as one month. Coza, well done. But don't let Catherine know about this."
At the end of the communication, Cossa sighed and said: "Don't blame me, if you blame it, blame you for offending Major Luda."
He left the communication station, went to the warehouse and picked up three backpacks of supplies, and then returned to the office to give the things to Allen. The three of Allen checked themselves, confirmed the equipment and supplies, and were ready to set off. Seeing Lucy at the entrance, Allen nodded and said: "We are going on a mission. We should be back in two or three days. Stay here."
Lucy unwillingly said to Catherine: "Can't I go together?"
"It's only a reconnaissance mission. There is no danger. Your Royal Highness will stay here." Catherine said calmly: "Otherwise, if you follow, follow the general's order, and I will follow in order to take the responsibility of protecting you. If let Knife Demon knew that a federation major general who broke into their territory would definitely cause a series of changes, which is definitely not what the general would like to see. If your Highness insists, then I can only use some necessary means."
Lucy gritted her teeth and said: "You are a threat."
Catherine spread her hands and said: "It's better than the consequences caused by this."
Allen shook his head: "Stay with the major general."
"All right, then." Lucy said helplessly.
The three left the outpost and walked along the rugged mountain road to the entrance of the Alex Plains. On the way, Willick reluctantly said: "Aren't we just holding the nose for the one-eyed dragon?"
"Be patient." Allen said: "For the time being, we can only do this, after all, we are now in a weak position. Besides, Catherine keeps Lucy, it is both a protection and a threat."
Willik was surprised: "I thought that beauty was on our side."
Alan shook his head: "Catherine is not that simple. For the time being, she is a little bit on our side. But in the end, she will only be on her side."
"It seems that I can only obey orders." Willick sighed.
"Not necessarily." Allen laughed: "Although it is a bit dangerous to be transferred to the reconnaissance team, the advantage is that Ruson can't see such a far place. In order to keep us alive long enough, I think it is necessary to create some trouble for Rusen and the spread of death."r1058
